Language note:

The Lenape or Delaware languages, Munsee and Unami, were historically spoken in Lenapehoking, traditional Lenape territory comprising the southeastern part of modern-day New York, eastern Pennsylvania, New Jersey and coastal Delaware. These languages are part of the Eastern Algonquian subgroup of the Algonquian language family. Although historically classified as dialects of a single language by linguists, they are not mutually intelligible.
